Yep and yep. It does some stuff thats hard to believe. . If I had a one button mouse there would be no problem because the option, apple key and control key serve as the 2nd button. Here are some highlights. But do yourself a favor and go to the Mac store and hang out for a demo.

Highlights

Do you run into any issues with having a one button mouse, when on Windows you're supposed to have two?

I've heard rumors that there might be a 12'', but it is unconfirmed.

12 inch or 15 inch? I can understand that. ;)

1" diagonal..huge difference to me at least. Right now I'm using a 14.1" IBM T41 and wouldn't mind it being a little smaller.
